THE SUN, LONDON, WEDXESDAY, NOVEMBER 2,1536. SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. The Tory Journals seem almost at as great a loss for materials to construct an opposition to the Mi nistry as the Israelites were in Egypt when attempting to - make bricks without straw. Our opposition con temporaries have but three straws, or three subjects al together not worth, a straw, with which to build up the battery that is to beat clown the Melbourne Adminis tvation. These are, the influence and dread of O'Connell and the Papists—the dinners and drunken revelries of the Tories—and that child of their own adoption, if not begetting, the Poor Law Amendment Act. The ingenuity with which these scanty ma terials are worked up is extraordinary, and if it were nr,t for the surreptitious introduction of false weights and measures, in the shape of enormous calumny and indescribably indecent abuse, we should admire the ability and perseverance with which the factious prints ply their hopeless task. If we were called upon to give proofs of the claims which the Melbourne Cabinet has upon the country, we should not place to much confidence in what it has done or designed to do, as upon the dearth of inculpa tory evidence which its enemies, with all their reek-- lessicess of truth, can bring against it. On this alone -would we confidently appeal to the sense of the coun try, feeling assured that the people of England would not pronounce a verdict of guilty on the accusation of Bedlamites, and knowing that all men of the least dis cernment must perceive that the idea of Popish ascend ancy can be entertained only by men who have lost their reason. The miserable shifts to which the fac tion is reduced, may he jucle4ed by specimens given in two articles in the Times of yesterday. In the first of which is discussed the possibility of Popery being esta blished in Ireland, and the necessity of reconquering that country deprecated in the following ludicrously af fected strain of humanity :—" Rather than relinquish, every man in Britain will no doubt demand reconquer. But, gracious Providence, are we to endure tine dominion of these peddling slaves for the sake of entailing upon ourselves the necessity of that reconquest which it may cost the lives of half amillinn of deluded wretches to complete ?" The Times appears exceedingly con siderate, and deserves credit for as much kind feeling as those gentry who object to destroying game by wholesale contrivance, in order that they may have the pleasure of shooting them in detail. It woold be an irreparable loss to the sport of the tithe agents to have " half a - million of the deluded wretelies' taken down in one fell swoop, when such constant and agree able recreation is afforded by having an occasional field-day, such as that of Dunkerrin, 'Ratheormac, &c. In the second article of the Times the new Poor Law Bill furnishes the subject of grave accusation against Ministers, and either through inexcusable ignorance, or shameless malevolence, the writer attempts to get up a charge against the Home Secretary on account of not - having given a specific reply to a petition to his Ma jesty, praying for a repeal of the Poor Law Amend ment Aet. The reply to the petitioner stated that it had been laid before his Majesty ; but this did not sa tisfy the concoctors of the petition = who appeared to imagines that an answer shoul':l have come direct from his Majesty himself, statir. g whether or not the law should be repealed. It has ever been considered that petitions addressed to his Majesty when received by Ministers have reached their destination, as it would be absurd to suppose that all petitions should actually be presented to the supreme authority, as his Majesty, if he had time to consider them, could not, without trenching on the privilege of Ministers, give any reply without their advice and acquiescence. Yet, because Lord John Russell replied to a petition in the usual manner, as practised by Pitt, Castlereagh, Liverpool, Canning, and every other Minister for years past, he is accused of " official impertinence." The pitiable straits to which the Tories are reduced cannot be more strongly illustrated than in the rom pous and important manner in which every con temptible creature who attaches himself to their cause is introduced to public notice by their leading journals. The filth collected by the scavenger who formerly figured as secretary of the Catholic Association, fre quently fills two columns of the Times. Yesterday a Mr. Postle, who, from the reverence which the Times affects towards him, might be supposed an Apostle, was represented as putting an extinguisher on the Re form of the House of Losds. Mr. Postle—be it known to all men —as the Times informs us, said— " he would never consent to abolish the House of Lords." On this high authority the Times remarks, " When English yeomen like Mr. Postle deliver such sentiments, we would not give much for our House of Lords Reformers." It is useless, in future, to inquire into the state of public opinion—if we wish to ascer tain what is necessary or possible to be clone, we must ask, " What does Mr. Postle say ?" Another recruit whom the Times has picked up, is a Mr. Gough, whose accusation against Ministers on the subject of neglected petitions, furnished a text for the tirade to which we have just referred. This gentleman's speech figures at length in a leading article of the Times, which seems suddenly affected with a deep sympathy for the sufferings of the poor. The intent of this pre tended sympathy is too apparent to need exposure. When the rights of the poor to politital freedom are brought under consideration, thos e sufferina 47 , from poverty are denounced as " a rebellious," " swinish multitude," whom it would b',l madness to enfranchise —but when the oppressor finds need of their sweet voices, they are soother with the softest words ima ginable—but whateve:.: their suffering, we would advise them to endure ar t y thing, and hazard every thing, rather than be &aped by their natural hereditary ene mies—the Toiles.—Morizing Advertiser. A subje c t is at present before Europe which requires, to elucid.ate its bearings, the reminiscences of history for the last twenty-five years. We allude to the late unexpected change in the relations between Sweden and, Russia, which all hinge upon the feelings and situation of the present King, Bernadotte. This wise and politic Sovereign illustrates admirably the well known line of Voltaire— " Le premier qui fut Roi, fut un soldat heureux." Bernadotte, son of a peasant, born in Gascony, was at the beginning of the Revolution a common trooper in a regiment of cavalry. Possessing a mind of superior powers, in the convulsions of the revolutionary times, and in the military reign of Buonaparte, he found his level, and gradually lose to the rank of 2narsechal ; in which capacity, commanding that division of the French army whose field of operation bordered on Sweden, he first became connected witia that country. When the un fortunate Gustavus, the last King of the House of Vasa, probably sinking ue.:ter the mental anxiety which his chi valric resistance to the overwhelming power of Buona parte occasioned, became mad, the old Duke of Suder mania, master of the Throne of his exiled relative, turned towards Bernadotte for counsel and support, and ul. timately adopted him. At his death Bernadotte, who had inspired the Swedes with deep admiration for his political wisdom, military talents, and personal feelings, was raised by them to the throne. His accession met with the approbation of the Holy Alliance, which, not withstanding its good will towards the rightful heir, owed a debt of gratitude to Bernadotte for his very ef fective aid against Buonaparte at a time when, alth ough somewhat reduced, his power was still so colossal as overshadow the whole of Germany. Bernadotte natu:: - . being rais e d t o th e Throne of Sweden, es poused the inveterate hatred of the S the Rus s i ans , w h o had conquered ..vedes towards f irm them, in 1808, their most splendid proviri ., , e, the -: Finland. Bernadotte more readily jo; ded in this hatred as he feared Russia would :nake his doubtful title to the Throne a lever to overthrow him, and in the confusion push 'more forward the boundary of her power, which, like the ocean, always encroaches, but, unlike it, never re tires. That the Emperor Alexander should do this was the more to be expected, as he was related by marriage to the sou of the exiled Gustavus, now a Lieutenant-General in the service of Austria. Until within the last year or two the hatred of Bernadotte Brit' the Swedes towards the Russians continued un ?abated, and at the time when the Poles appeared likely to throw off their sway, the sympathy of the nation was expressed in terms which set all diplomatic oh- Bervances at defiance. Suddenly, however, peculiar symptoms of change in Bernadotte 's conduct appeared. The first was a misunderstanding with the King of the Barricades, then greatly out of favour with the Northern Autocrat, which was followed by the most friendly demonstrations towards Russia. Of late the ties of friendship have been drawn still closer, and the change of sentiments has now reached a climax for which the world, in its astonishment, has naturally sought a solu tion. That there is some motive of deep import existing nobody can doubt, for otherwise Bernadotte, already at war with the Storthing, which has impeached a Minister, whose dismissal or resignation he Will not allow of—Bernadotte, we say, would hot oppose the general feelings of the country iegattling Russia. The explanation given is, that Bernadotte, approaching the termination of hi 4 hfe, is seeking protection for his son Oscar, who Las no claims beyond the respect due to his father's memory—his own merits, such as thri are—and his dubious connection with the powerless King of Bavaria, through a daugh= ter of Eugene Beauharnais. These are the only points of support of Oscar against the caprices of a free nation so renowned fort owning, exiling, and assassinating their sovereigns, There are three par ties in Sweden—one for Prince Oscar's succession—a second looking to the example of Bernadotte's own ascent to the tt . irone, in favour of his successor being elected-0:x third desirous of bringing back the sue cessior. in the legitimate line. To secure the latter ob, j 'ect, of course Gustavus and his son have at this opportune moment exerted their utmost power ; and in pursuance of it they have invoked the principles of legitimacy pervading the great Cabinets of the North, particularly that of Austria, which, in the case of the succession of the present exiled Duke of Brunswick, has lately exhibited a strong feeling.—Morning Post. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. A. gentleman of the name of Drew, of Great Trinity- I I lane, Bread-street, applied to the LORD MAYOR yeStPl`day upon the subject of a vessel which was wrecked. in Torres Straits some time ago, and the passengers ar..;: i crew of which were supposed to have been taken by the savage natives, and detained in slavery. He had Ileen on intimate terms of friendship with some of the unfortunate passengers, whose relatives and fric7ids were in the most dreadful sus pense as to their fate, and was acquainted with Mr. Bailey, who not long n' - go applied to the Secretary of State, in forming him. that the Captain of the Augustus Casar was likely to be able to make some communication respecting those who had been wrecked. His object was to request the Lord Mayor to apply to Messrs. Buckle, of Mark lane, the owners of the ship Mandes, which had lately arrived in the port of London, and had (he understood) anchored for some time at Merrily's-Island, in Torres Straits, to give directions to the Captain and crew to afford all the information they possessed on the subject. He had reason to suppose that more was known than had been stated. The LORD MAYOR knew Messrs. Buckle, of Mark-lane, to be persons of the first respectability, and wholly incapable of conceal;.ng any information which it might be proper for the frie:ids of the passengers and crew to receive ; and he was also convinced that a gentleman of the character which Captain Carr, the commander of the vessel, bore, would not hesitate to give to all interested the most full answers to their inquiries. Mr. Drew stated that one of the crew, he was given to understand, had mentioned that he saw a white man at Torres Straits, who intimated that several of those who had been wrecked were up the country, detained by the natives. The two mates of the Mangles gave accounts which varied considerably, and to relieve the anxioty of the friends of the unfortunate people who were missing, it was to be hoped that the Lord Mayor, who had so warmly interested him self before, on the application made by Lord Glenclg for the examination of the captain and crew of the Augustus Ccesar, would cause investigation to be made into the cir cumstances supposed to be known to the crew of the Mangles. He (Mr. Drew) was convinced that if his Lordship did not interfere, the details of the informati.on would not be made known by the captain,whom he, liad seen yesterday, and who certainly gave a most meagre account of the circumstances. Mr. Bayley intended to have waited upon his Lordship, but he was tumble ; and it was that gentleman's intention, if the Lord Mayor was not able to cause the investigation to be undertaken, to apply to the Secretary. _ _ The LORD IV{on said the applicant might write to them in his (t ue Lord Mayor's) name, and no doubt a satisfactorj answer, as far as they and the captain and crew of the Mangles were concerned, would be given im med;.ately. Mr. Drew should make the application as suggested by the Lord Mayor, and inform his Lordship of the result. A. young man named John Roberts was brought up, charged with having, in conjunction with others, plundered the Green Dragon public-house, in Sun-street, Bishopsgate, of a quantity of bedclothes and wearing apparel. The prisoner said that he had been singing in the tap room with two or three others, but he knew nothing of the robbery. Upon his person was found a duplicate, which, it appeared, he had stolen from a foolish person who had been treating him, and those who are believed to have been his accomplices in the robbery. He was remanded for further examination. The landlord had objected to the conduct of the party a short time before, and told them that they should not any more enter his doors. She protested that the statement of her husband •••as to tally void of truth. Mr. LAING, after considering some time, stated that even if the charge were true, the husband was art accessory to the mutcler l and under etl the circumstances he should noteritektgh it, husband—Do you let her go ? Mr. LAING—Yes, if you can obtain further evidence, I will listen to the accusa tion again, but not without% The parties then quitted the die& THAMES OFFICE. estehlas StAdn-, a hey, abed thirtten years, a native of Scotland., Wo betitSilit kefore Mr. BALLANTINE, charged Witl) 'it i e s 6li4 lilmer Claringbould, a boy aged eight yeart Trott! hover. Mr. Banks, the steward of the Har 16fttih steamer, belonging to the General Steam Navigation Company, stated that Dover had been in a state of rCnt consternation in consequence of the sudden abtiente of a boy, the son of a lady residing there, and Whose father was living in France. The circumstance of the boy s s dis appearance had reached him at , Bottiogfie akid ar rival of the Itarlegetin ht th e tiVOt P??, "oaturday afternoon, he was informed thAta 'boy answering his description had been ittn at one of the wharfs near London Bridge, and had been sleepit ' , on the quay. He made in quiries, an d f oun d t h e boy at the house of Mr. Scott, a respectable lighterman, residing in Mill-lane, Tooley-street, who Lad kindly sheltered him. He was the same boy Who had been missing from Dover. On making further inquiries he ascertained that the prisoner, who was a sailor boy, had formerly belonged to the Arab, a schooner trading between London and Perth, had been discharged by the captain for some reason, and had formed a resolu tion in his own mind to travel to London to get another ship but being without the means of doing so, he prevailed on young Claringbould, whom he met on his way to school in Dover. High-street, on Wednesday morning, to ac sonapany him to the metropolis, and induced him in th first instance to go to his grandmother, living the town, and procure a quantity of victuals. This having been effected they set off to Canterbury, wher e they slept in a cart in the cathedral dose, and at three o'clock on Thnttchty Molt ing they started for Rochester. Their steels o 1 provisions being expended, Claringbould sent out by his compa nion to solicit money and rod, and he got a supply of bread. They wandered at ont Rochester during the whole of Thurs day night ) , MIA were frequently challenged by the town writeh, On Friday morning Stalkan ordered the child to Solicit more vistuals, but he met with bad success, at some places the parties giving him a dry crust, and others telling him they had none for themselves, On Friday morning they left Rochester for London, Which they managed to reach before dark. They took up their abode for the night On Carpenter Smith's Wharf, Tooley-street, On the fellfting morning the prisoner left Claringbould in a 'boat miserable condition of cold and hunger, and phiceeded in search of a morsel. Mr. Scott, the lighterman, who had business at the wharf, observed the destitute state of the boy Claring bould, and took him to his own house, where he gave him some refreshment. In the course of the day the prisoner returned, and hearing that Claringbould was at Mr. Scott's house, went there, and persuaded him to leave. After giving him three biscuits, he put him on his way to Dover, to which place he told him to make the best of his way. Their motions were, however, observed by Mr. Scott's son, who went after the child and brought him back. He was taken care of until witness arrived, when he took him on board the Harlequin. The boy was so ill that he could re tain nothing on his stomach, but owing to proper treatment he was now in a fair way of recovery. John Gaskin, a Thames Police surveyor, was called on board the Harlequin by Mr. Banks, who stated that Stalkan had enticed the child away. He understood that Stalkan, who was the son of respectable parents in Scotland, had been dismissed from the Arab, at Dover, for dishonesty, and had worked on the fears of the child to accompany him to London. The chila Claringbould, a little simple fellow, on being qur_.:stioned by Mr. BALLANTINE, said that Stalkan told him that his mother was waiting for him at London Bridge, and assured him that all the streets there were paved with silver and gold. He also stated that if his mother was not waiting for him at London Bridge, he would take him to Scotland, send him to school there, and make a captain of him. He was likewise to say if any questions were put to him by the people on the road that he was on his way to see his grandmother, and that Stalkan was his guide. Mr. BALLANTINE said the villain who decoyed the child away deserved a good flogging. The case was not one, however, of which he could take cognizance, and he thought the best way of disposing of the case was to send the child on board the Harlequin, where he had been treated so humanely by Mr. Banks, and to take the prisoner on board the Rose, where he would be conveyed to Perth. Stalkan was then removed in custody. PRICES OF CANALS, DOCK 't'OCKS, ASSURANCE COMPANIES, &c.&c. &c. LONDON, FRIDAY, NOV. 1. Price Nulikbet DiSidentl of zv eiiiiivi g: per I:b4 Shares. Anninn. Foil.

Martin Devany, an Irishman of most repulsive aspect, was yesterday brought before Mr. CONANT and Mr. HALL, by Webb, the beadle of St. James's charged with having deserted his three infant children. About six. weeks ago the prisoner's wife was so dread fully injuwd that it was found necessary to take her to the hospital, where she soon afterwards died. As it was very generally reported that the unfortunate woman had met her death from the brutal usage she was accustomed to re ceive from her husband, a Coroner's inquiry was held on the body, but no evidence tending to criminate any party being brought forward a verdict of " Acciden tal death" was returned. The prisoner, finding himself out of danger, left his three infant children in the open street, and went to a different part of the town. The chil dren were taken into the workhouse, and a warrant., ob tained for the apprehension of the unnatural father, was placed in the hands of Webb, the beadle. In the course of the beadle's search, he was informed that the prisoner, al though the shocking death of his wife had occurred so re cently, was about to be married to a young girl. Having on Monday afternoon ascertained that the prisoner was in the City of London public-house, Peter-street, he went there, and apprehended him. The prisoner made resist ance, and as he was seconded by a gang of his countrymen it was found necessary to handcuff him. Mr. Conant. told the prisoner he richly deserved the punishment he should inflict, which was too months' imprisonment and hard la bour. lIATT ON-GARDEN. Yesterday Margaret IValdron, a well-dressed woman, about 35 years of age, was put at the bar before Mr. Laing, charged with murdering her child in August, 1834, by tying a cord round its neck. The accuser, an elderly man, who gave the name of Ulick Waldron, and said that he was living at No. 1, Saffron hill, on being asked if he had any thing to say against the prisoner, proceeded to state that, in August, 1834, his wife, who was travelling with him to London, gave birth to a male child in a barn three or four miles below St. Alban's. No one but himself, lie said, was with her at the time. She remained there for three days under his sole care, and at at the expiration of that time they proceeded on foot to wards town with the babe, which was then in good health. They stayed that night at St. Alban's, and the next morning his wife murdered her infant by strangulation, and threw it down a privy. Mr. LAING—Did you see her kill the child ?—The hus band said lie did not. She left 'aim with the baby at her breast, and seeing her shortly afterwards with a bundle in her hand he took it from her, and was horror-struck at be holding his child a corpse, It was doubled up so that it might go in a smaller tightly as possibl- c ompass, and there was a band tied as 4 round its neck. Mr. LAID_ W hen you saw that what did y ou do ? Husby was frightened almost to death, and I ran ..way from her. Mr. LAING—Have you seen her often since ? Hus band--Yes ; but I have not lived with her. Mr. LAING—Why did you not bring forward this charge before then ? Husband—l did not like to expose her. Mr. LAING---What is the reason you now do it? Hus band—l am going to Ireland, and I thought it right to un burden my conscienc e before I left this country. Inspector Miller —He came to me on Sunday night, and made a similar statement. He told me he was very un happy in his mind in consequence of the alleged murder, and he thought that bringing it to light would give him some relief. After having heard what he had to say, I or dered police serjeant Bays, No. 10 N, to apprehend the prisoner, who is a servant at the Duke of Wellington public house, Ball's Pond. Mr. LAING inquired if she had said anything about the affair ?—Policeman Bays answered that when he took her into custody she denied all knowledge of her accuser, but afterwards admitted that he was her husband. She said she was innocent of the offence imputed to her. Mr. LAING asked the husband how long he had been married to the prisoner He said five years, adding that she had a child four years of age, which was then in Ireland With her (prisoner's) father. That babe, he observed, she wanted to destroy before it was made a Christian. Mr. LAING remarked that it was a most extraordinary case, and he told the prisoner that he would listen to any remarks that she might choose to make. GREENWICH PETTY SESSIONS Yesterday Matilda Mary Harris was charged with setting fire to the dwelling-house of her mistress, Elizabeth Vesie, in Queen Elizabeth's-row, Greenwich. Elizabeth Vesie is a widow, and has lived in the above place between twenty and thirty years. On the 17th of last month the prisoner came into her service ; she repre sented herself as a young person respectably brought up, and had never been in any place before, and that her re commendation was from a person living in the Queen Eli zabeth's alms-houses. After making fome inquiry, she took her into her service, and she conducted herself as well as a young woman so early in life could be expected to do. On Thursday last, in consequence of expecting some friends from the country, she desired her to light a fire in the spare bedroom, to air it. She did so, but said that it would not burn, but it did burn up very clear ; and she (prosecutrix) put a blanket to air at a sufficient distance from the fire be tween it and the bed. This was between one two in the afternoon. About an hour after, as she was sitting in the parlour, she smelt something very offensive burning, and her daughter who was with her, ran out of the room and up stairs. She followed her up to the room where the fire had been lighted. It was full of smoke, and she opened the windows. On examining the room, she found that the side of the bed next the fire-place was burnt from the foot to the head. The mattress and feather bed were burnt all along one side. The blanket, counter pane, and three bolsters were also burnt. The blanket which she had put to air she found where she had left it ; it was only scorched in one place about the size of the palm of her hand. There were no flames, there being no dra pery on the bed. Saw the prisoner in the room, and be lieves she ran up after them. Was so much alarmed that she could not recollect whether she said anything to her about the fire. Prisoner brought some water, but did not appear very active, and she could not make her out. The room was set to rights, and the next morning, in consequence of something which took place, Mr. Lloyd was sent for. Eliza Vesie, the daughter of last witness, further said that the floor of the room was burnt as though something had been dropped on it. The prisoner pointed out to her a mark on the ceiling, which appeared to have been made by the flame of a candle. Suspected the prisoner, but unwil lingly, at the time. Did so as she appeared so unwilling to assist in extinguishing the fire. A solicitor, who attended on behalf of the prisoner, cross-examined the witness.—She crushed the blanket and counterpane on the floor, to put the fire out. Thinks it not possible that the floor could have been burnt by so doing. It was not. burnt where they were put. The mark on the ceiling, which was pointed out by the prisoner, caused her to suspect her. The prisoner said she was seventeen years of age. After being warned, she went into a long statement about lighting the fire, similar to that given by Mr. Lloyd ; and also said that she knew that she held the candle close to the bed, but did not mean it, and that shd saw sparks come out of the bed, but took no notice of them. Matilda Burrows Rogers, the mother, being sworn, said she lives at Shepherd's-place, Lewisham. Her daughter's conduct has been very singular for the last twelve months past. On one occasion she made her some beef tea, and observed that it was very black. It was afterwards found that black lead had been put therein. She believes her daughter not to be right in her mind. During the examination, the prisoner's appearance was that of a person of imbecile mind, she having paid attention to almost every trivial circumstance which took place in the Court, rathe r th an to t h e i mme di a t e c h arge i n w hi c h s h e is involved. She was fully committed on the charge. Colonel and Lady Elizabeth Steele, with their fa mily, have arrived at Kimbolton for the winter, much to the satisfaction of the inhabitants, to whom the amiable dis position and condescending manners of Lady Elizabeth have justly endeared her. Her Ladyship is the eldest surviving (laughter of the Duke of Manchester. NEW NOVEL BY THE AUTHOR OF " VIVIAN GREy."—The announcement of a new novel, entitled " Hen rietta Temple, a Love Story," by the distinguished author of " Vivian Grey," is an event of interest in the literary and fashionable world. This writer was justly hailed, on his first appearance, as a master in his art. In the second series of " Vivian Grey," where he carried his hero into Germany, he was acknowledged to have been inspired with all the spirit of its romance. Combined with all the gaiety, the rapidity, and the variety of the first series, the continuation displayed a power of a much loftier order—his pathos was deeper— his pictures of society more finished—and his views of man kind and their affairs far more philosophical. The present story, we are informed, is a bold attempt to revive the sustained interest of the old plots, which, of late, have been mostly superseded by mere strings of characters, connected with incidents. As specimens of the power and passion which are so much more maturely developed in the present work, the reader might be referred to the episodes of Violet Fane, and the adventures of the young Archduchess in the wood series of " Vivian grey."
